Frugal (and green!) living

Calendar

February 10, 2001, 7:00pm: Frugal Living Talk!

Overview

I will be giving a talk about ways to live frugally, and sometimes eco-friendly. As shapr put it, "The way I see it, the more money I can save, the more money I can spend on tech [things], right?" And of course, we all want to be green. Some of the stuff I will talk about, I already went over in my Green Lving class.

Definition of "Frugal" and "Cheap"

Being frugal takes more effort.

Cheap people are not happy people.

Being frugal is about being happy while saving money.

Cheap people think short term. Frugal people think long term.

Cheap people care about the cost of something. Frugal people care about the value of something.
